Kristian WindandClaude Opus 5 8c748c2a88 feat(sidebar): drag it wider, fold it away, and have it stay that way
The sidebar was 268px and always there. On a wide monitor that wastes the
room; on a laptop it takes room the list needs.

The width drags from a handle on the border — 7px of target over a 1px
line, because a 1px target is a target you miss — and the whole column
folds away from a button in the topbar. Both are remembered.

In localStorage rather than on the account: this is a property of the
screen you are sitting at, not of you. The same person on a laptop and a
wide monitor wants different answers, and syncing it would make one of
them wrong every time they switch.

The handle is also a slider for the keyboard. Arrow keys move it, Home
puts it back, and so does a double-click — a drag handle with no keyboard
equivalent is a setting some people simply cannot reach.

Folding is desktop-only, and the media query says so rather than leaving
it to chance: below the breakpoint the sidebar is a drawer that opens over
the page, and a collapsed drawer would open to nothing. Clamped to
200–480px in the store, so a stored value from an older build cannot make
it unusable either.

The SvelteKit PWA. Not written yet — this directory holds its place so the Docker build has something to copy, and so the frontend stage can tell "not built yet" apart from "the build failed".

The Dockerfile builds this directory when it finds a package.json here, and otherwise emits a placeholder page. So adding the real app is exactly: put a SvelteKit project in this directory whose npm run build produces build/.

What it needs to be

  • SvelteKit, adapter-static, output in build/. The Go binary embeds that directory at compile time and serves it, falling back to index.html so client-side routes survive a reload.
  • A PWA: installable, offline reading of already-cached lists, swipe gestures for complete and schedule.
  • Nordic minimalism. Dark by default, light available. One accent colour, everything else neutral. Runic mark for Verdande.
  • Optimistic on every local action. No spinner ever appears for something the browser could already know the answer to.

Talking to the backend

Same origin — the Go binary serves both. /api/v1 for REST, /api/v1/ws for the live sync. Session cookie is httpOnly, so the frontend never handles the token itself.

During development, run the backend on 8080 and point the Vite dev server's proxy at it:

VERDANDE_DATA_DIR=./data VERDANDE_DEV=true go run ./cmd/verdande
